March 2026 focused on strengthening EV charging protocol reliability, ISO15118 compliance, and robust transaction handling in the everest-core stack. Key work included protocol-agnostic HLC session failure reporting, ISO15118 power limit scheduling enhancements, and a fix to prevent delayed authorization from bypassing external cancellations. The changes improved fault visibility, ensured more accurate power allocation, and reduced risk of stranded transactions across charging sessions.

Monthly work summary for 2025-03 focused on improving robustness and stability of security-critical components in the Everest core.

February 2025 Monthly Summary: Focused on standardizing versioning, improving protocol robustness, and hardening certificate validation across two core repositories (EVerest/libocpp and EVerest/everest-core). The work drives maintainability, security, and reliability for OCPP deployments while delivering concrete improvements to developer onboarding and runtime behavior.

December 2024: Delivered a targeted Architecture Refactor of EnergyManager with EnergyManagerImpl to decouple core optimization logic from the wrapper, complemented by a JSON-based unit test framework to boost testability and maintainability. Migrated existing C++ unit tests to a JSON input/expected-output format, enabling easier test case management and faster regression cycles. This work strengthens the robustness of energy optimization features and accelerates future development.
